Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 18, 2025) - Lake Victoria Gold Ltd. (TSXV: LVG) (OTCQB: LVGLF) (FSE: E1K) ("LVG" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the construction progress of the gold processing facility owned by Nyati Resources (T) Limited ("Nyati") in Tanzania, and on the advancement of negotiations toward a binding agreement.
David Scott, Managing Director Tanzania & Director of LVG, commented following a recent site visit: "It was impressive to see the scale and quality of construction firsthand. The Nyati team has delivered a well-engineered plant with strong attention to detail across all critical circuits. With commissioning just weeks away, the site is clearly in the final stages of readiness. This facility will play a key role in enabling our development strategy at Tembo and beyond."
Background on the Nyati Processing Facility
Nyati Resources operates a fully permitted gold processing facility located on one of Tembo's Mining Licenses. The site includes an operating 120 tonne-per-day carbon-in-pulp (CIP) plant and is nearing completion of a second, much larger 500+ tpd unit. Once fully commissioned, total capacity is expected to exceed 600 tpd. The project benefits from existing infrastructure, including grid power, standby generation, a constructed tailings facility, on-site lab, and administrative support. The new plant is designed for scalable toll milling and third-party ore purchases, with features such as dual regrind mills and high-capacity leach tanks aimed at maximizing recoveries and operational flexibility.
Construction Progress Nearing Commissioning
Construction at the Nyati plant is advancing steadily toward commissioning, which is expected to begin within 4-6 weeks. Final site preparations and equipment testing are currently underway.
- The run-of-mine (ROM) pad is being filled with low grade base material awaiting delivery of mineralized material to be used for commissioning.
- The primary crushing circuit — including feed bins, gyratory grizzly, jaw crushers, and conveyors — has been fully installed.
- The secondary crushers, feed bins, chutes, and double-deck screen systems are nearing completion.
- Mill feed bins and belt weightometers are installed and connected to twin primary ball mills.
- Regrind mills, hydrocyclone cluster, and the full leach circuit — including carbon handling, cyanide dosing, pumps, and agitators — are in place.
- Grid electrical supply is operational; standby generation has been installed to ensure continuity during outages.
- All motors, pumps, and instrumentation are undergoing final dry testing.

Advancing Toward a Binding Agreement
Lake Victoria Gold and Nyati Resources are in advanced stages of negotiating a binding agreement that will formalize the strategic partnership initially outlined in the executed Letter of Intent, as announced on . The proposed agreement is expected to provide LVG with exclusive rights to mill and process ore through the Nyati facility, support the development of its nearby mining licenses, and outline capital contributions and revenue sharing provisions.
Marc Cernovitch, President & CEO of Lake Victoria Gold, stated: "The progress at Nyati represents a key milestone in our broader strategy to unlock the value of our Tanzanian assets through smart, capital-efficient development. Partnering with a facility that's near commissioning allows us to accelerate production timelines while maintaining focus on exploration and growth. As we move toward a definitive agreement, we're laying the groundwork for a scalable platform that can support both near-term cash flow and long-term shareholder value."
Cautionary Statement Regarding Preliminary Development Concepts
The Company cautions that the assessment of potential development opportunities at the Tembo Project is at a preliminary stage and is not based on a mineral resource estimate or any economic analysis such as a Feasibility Study. As such, there are significant technical and economic uncertainties that remain unresolved, including but not limited to metallurgical recoveries, grade continuity, mineability, permitting, processing capacity, capital and operating costs, and the availability of financing. Any reference to potential development scenarios is conceptual in nature and should not be construed as an indication that an economic or technical case has been established for mining at the Tembo Project.
Grant of RSUs
The Company also announces that it has granted an aggregate of six million five hundred thousand restricted share units ("RSUs") to certain directors, officers, and consultants pursuant to its Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. The RSUs will vest in accordance with the terms of the plan and applicable award agreements, and are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, as required.
